China strives for easing Korean tensions

China has communicated with relevant parties in order to help ease tension on the Korean Peninsula, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said Friday.

"China has maintained close communication with relevant parties in a bid to resolve the problem and ease tensions," spokesman Hong Lei said at a daily press briefing.

Hong made the remarks when asked if China will assign a diplomat to engage the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) in the near future.

"Under the current situation, we urge relevant parties to remain calm and restrained, rather than act provocatively or increase tensions," Hong said.

The spokesman urged relevant parties to take a long-term perspective and work for peace on the peninsula.

He also called for the resumption of the six-party talks at an early date.
